“Prisons do not offer the necessary resources for mental health patients. It is not recovery. Prison and jail systems are punishments in authoritarian societies made to oppress,” he opened his message.
“I do not support prison because of the lack of resources, the lack of rehabilitation, the lack of education for mental health, and the psychological impact it may have on our son, having a relationship with his father.”

Zac and his son have a good relationship according to Kristin and she would rather preserve it than make things worse for both parties in the long run.
“Our son consistently gets dad time several times a week, he spends all weekend every other weekend, and he deserves it.”

In the same message, Kristin addressed the inevitable haters for her personal choices. “So please give me some grace in understanding that I’m not easy on Zac, instead I’m trying to protect our son from further trauma.”
He added. “Nothing is black and white and not every abuser is the same. People who are willing to work to be better, deserve the chance to show that they can be better. Especially with diagnosable mental illness and significant head trauma caused by Football.”
Kristin also spoke about the situation in the accompanying video assuring those listening that she posted the video in the first place because Zac was unrepentant and felt he needed to learn a lesson.

When the former professional athlete begins to realize and show physical remorse for his actions, she decides to help him along the way in a capacity that is comfortable for him.
Zac was recently sentenced to 6 months in prison for the 2021 incident but what he really wants is a mental health facility to continue his recovery journey. Kristin shared that it was Zac who chose to seek mental health help, he was the one who found out how wrong he was in this incident, and he was the one who realized for himself how much he had lost in an instant.
Kristin also admits that she is the one who has to deal with and “co-parents with this guy”, seeing that he sought CBT therapy and seeing the change in his attitude since getting help is what motivates her today to advocate for him to get real help and not be locked up behind bars.
